Bo Bichette has been in the lineup during the Fall Classic even though he is less than 100 percent healthy. He suffered a knee sprain in September and missed the Blue Jays' postseason victories over the New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners . Bichette has split his time between second base and designated hitter during the World Series. He has been able to contribute 5 hits in 18 at bats and 3 runs batted in even though his running ability has been curtailed.
Bichette is scheduled to become a free agent after the World Series, and he was asked if he thought about the potential end of his association with the Blue Jays .
The hard-hitting infielder said that moving on from the team is not what he is thinking about with the championship on the line. "I'd be lying if I hadn't thought about that at some point in the season, but I've got a World Series to win," Bichette said , per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic .
Blue Jays hoping Kevin Gausman can wrap up the title
After beating the Dodgers in Games 4 and 5 in Los Angeles , the Blue Jays are hoping that Kevin Gausman can continue to keep the opposition in a batting slump.

Gausman will face Yoshinobu Yamamoto , and the Dodgers pitcher was dominant when he shut down the Blue Jays in Game 2. The sixth game figures to be a pitcher's duel and it will likely come down to which hurler makes a key mistake or two at the wrong time.
The Blue Jays are hoping Bichette, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Alejandero Kirk can find a way to solve Yamamoto, while the Dodgers need Shohei Ohtani , Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman to attack and succeed against Gausman
